So I am a sponsor and board member for Outdoor Adventure Club of Greater Cincinnati and we get urban teens outdoors. All profits from Paddlefest go to OACGC, so I got involved with Paddlefest this year (which of course means I got Tim and friends involved too)! Paddlefest is the largest paddle event in the United States! Thousands of people paddle the Ohio River via kayak, canoe, or even paddleboard. My job was to get students who participate in OACGC involved in helping at the Covington landing, a halfway mark for the event. It was a beautiful day for the event and the students had a blast. I have made some great connections through Paddlefest and OACGC and continue to meet outdoor enthusiasts who support great causes!
